Hi fellas
I need to confirm which four pot brakes will fit straight onto F2 YPVS forks. Is that a 93mm spacing?
I believe the 3XV TZR250 and the Triumph 595 series bolt straight on? Is this without any modifications?
Lastly I'm assuming that the FZR400/600 brakes might fit can anybody help with which models?
Thanks in advance, just to be clear this is the 4 pot callipers

Watching this one with interest,I was looking at the 595's as they bolt straight on,but might go with the R6 4 pots & mounting brackets......easier when using the R6 m/c.
F2 is 83 mm isn't it?

I bought a nice pair of T595's (they bolt straight on to F2 forks 83mm) on ebay for £45, and going to fit to my 31K with the bottom stanchions form an F2......hopefully it will all work out!

Triumph TT600 are cheaper than T595 ones. I have TT600 calipers fitted on mine from a year 2000 model, but not plumbed up yet.

f2 breaks are never great but mine feel well balanced with the suspension,weight and power of the bike.
would breaks that are vastly more efficent cause the front end to dive dramaticly or even lock the skinny tyre up?

Higgs, the only 4 potters that go straight on (other than the Triumph ones) are the FZR400 3TJ, TZR250 3MA, 3XV and R1-Z and possibly some import FZR250s. The FZR 600s have 100mm spacing, as do the 750 and 1000 so won't fit. Easiest way to tell from pics is the 83mm calipers usually have a single pad pin, the others have 2 pins. OEB has a good list so if he's feeling generous he may post it up  |
